The Loyola women’s softball team (8-12, 2-1) is entering the second half of its season after the team’s tough non-conference opponents helped them prepare for its Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) games. The team opened up its Valley play in a 2-1 series against Bradley University March 19-20.

While the COVID-19 pandemic posed as a roadblock for the team, head coach Alicia Abbott said she and her team are building back up and challenging themselves more than they ever have. One way the team is doing so is by bettering their relationships.

The tight-knit bond between the players ramps up the amount of trust they have in one another, Abbott said.
